Greetings Seeker,
Welcome to my jedi dance portal! This online dance course was created to help you not only obtain the foundations and fundamentals to get you started, but also to show you a deeper side to the Dance. This course was filmed entirely in Nature within the beautiful sacred lands of Sedona, Arizona. The reason for this was to transmit the energies of the natural forces through the video so you can feel the elemental energies in each style. This is a fusion of ancient wisdom expressed through the Popping & Animation styles. This alchemy of ancient and modern has given birth to the style you are about to embark upon. This style has gone by many names and its expression will most likely continue to change throughout the years. But as of now I am calling it the Tao-Pop Style. May the Force guide you on your journey on this path of Dance Mastery. Infinite Blessings, Adrian "Lobo" Miramontes |

ENTER
THE
TAO-POP
"The Dance that can be talked or written about is not the true Dance" - The Tao of Pop'Lock
Regardless, I shall do my best to still explain.
Tao = pronounced "Dao" ; is translated as "the way" or "the path"; in reference to the enlightenment achieved when living from the way of the Universe, God, Jehova, Allah, Great Spirit, Source, ect.
Pop = in reference to the Popping dance styles (aka Pop n' Lock).
In other words, Tao-Pop means Popping with the Way of the God. Much of the structure of this dance style is based off of Taoism and Taoist concepts such as Yin&Yang, the 5 elements, and the Bagua. The application of these concepts to dance have the potential to help dancers achieve a high level of mastery in their movement expression. These ideas also help one obtain a deeper understanding of Natural Law and deepen ones personal connection to a Higher Power that can thus be channeled through movement expression and also all areas of life.

THE 5 ELEMENTAL MOTHER STYLES
The styles we will cover in this course are the 5 elemental mother styles, which include:
Water-Waving, Wind-Tutting, Fire-Popping, Earth-Footwork, and Lightning-Animation
Water-Waving, Wind-Tutting, Fire-Popping, Earth-Footwork, and Lightning-Animation
WATER – WAVING
|
|
Enter the Water-Waving style – an illusional dance that creates continuous waves traversing through the body. It utilizes liquid like isolations and undulations to create a very flowy and watery effect through the body. Waving consists of many individual wave moves, which can be executed alone or strung together to create a continuous waving dance that can become infinite and eternal. Waving is often very smooth, graceful, and watery in its original sense.
|
WIND - TUTTING
|
Enter the Wind Style Tutting – A geometric dance that utilizes the body to create patterns of straight lines, 90 degree angles, geometries, and many other shapes. Tutting moves along the Grid, a geometric plane consisting of the x, y, and z axis which naturally sounds everything in creation. The Tutter is the artist of the Grid. Tutting consists of many combinations of various geometric sequences that are formulated together in a continuous story of geometric equations. Tutting Is often quick, swift, creative yet logical, has to “make sense”.
|
|
FIRE - POPPING
|
|
Enter the Fire-Pop Style – the original un-altered dance forms of popping that utilize the continuous “hitting” technique. Hitting is what creates the Pop like effect in the body by utilizing the quick contraction and release of various muscles in the body, usually done continuously by accentuating the clap of a beat. The dance form itself uses very angular and loose type of angle forms with the groove inspired by funk music of the 60s and 70s era.
Also connected is the Boogaloo style; which is a very funky and groovy dance, also born out of the funk music that has its own sets of sub styles. |
EARTH - FOOTWORK
|
Enter the Earth – Footwork style – a lower body dance style that is not specific but in reference to the world of footwork and ground dancing. Footwork in popping ranges from simple stepping patterns, marches, slides, balancing, spins, moving along the ground on knee, or lying completely on the ground. A common popular footwork style in popping is called Gliding – an illusionary trick of the feet to make it seem like one is sliding on ice. Footwork in popping is fundamental to the dance, for without it the popper would be a static dancer. Footwork is very diverse and can range from super simple to complex movements.
|
|
LIGHTNING - ANIMATION
|
|
Enter the Lightning Animation Style – Animation styles are considered to be the most "unreal" and "animated" looking of the styles. Its foundational style is the Robot, which is a highly technical dance that mimicks the movements of robotics, mechanical engineering, and other forms of technology. It utilizes various isolations, high body control, and gimmickry to capture the look and feel of a robot. Robot consists of many various robotic feels (such as the cyborg, the terminator, the android, and the mannequin). Out of all the styles it has the most acting or rather miming in it. Robot is also considered to be the most fundamental of the Animation Path of Popping dancers. Reason being is because many of the techniques and skills used in robot are also applied to all illusion based styles and typically the underlying groove for hardcore animators has a robotic feel.
